Damn the girls in the LRC are looking fine today. I am beginning to wonder if it’s because I want to do anything but write my paper that makes the young ladies look like such delectable nectar and I a starving honey bee (and yes I am a Zoologist so I know that only female bees go looking for nectar, just deal with the analogy damn it – though it’s kind of cool that the males’ jobs are solely to mate with the queen [except for that whole part about dying rather after mating and those that don’t mate eventually get driven out to perish outside the hive but other than those minor details…great life]) can only stare.

Shout out to Da Sand Assassin, great job in class today, shocked the hell out of us all.

The school is looking rather festive, because of course the Christmas season is already here. It seems as if every year Xmas comes even earlier and every year I become more and more jaded about it. Here in San Diego Christmas lights for some of my neighbors have been up since the 2nd week of November, way too early. Xmas is now so much more about competition; to get customers; to have the best lights; to have the most decorations; to be the first station to play Xmas carols; to buy presents b4 everyone else; to be the first to forget that it is supposed to be the season that we remember the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ.

I think because I get so mad at what I see, I myself often lose sight of the season because I try to shut out all the crap that seems to come with it. Of course since I am the world’s greatest procrastinator, I now have a massive paper due on a dark topic (Sexual Abuse and repressed memories) and I have to walk through all this cheery stuff to go get it done. Oh well I guess that is what caffeine was created for (and yes I know it’s a naturally occurring substance) by the good people at Diet Cola grand national corporation of the Americas.

Despite that above mix my friends still care enough to check up on me when I say I am sick

that her dad didn’t find out

that no one knows who that one is about

though I may forget names I do not forget faces

I no longer live with my parents

They still care enough to try and ground me

That I am old enough to realize that I cannot be grounded (though sometimes I forget for a second and panic)

Lanelle drove me up so I didn’t have to drive to The Valley

Lotion was invented cause damn The Valley is dry: A brother gets ashy in a second up here

Those who hate me really can’t affect my life

I have not become so cold that peeps hating me does not affect me

I have managed to surround myself with good people

I care enough about my peeps that I have nicknamed almost everyone

Small sampling of names: Sand Assassin; the Devil /Robin; the roomie; of the; Silent Assassin; Becks; Tiff (ok so some aren’t names but contractions but damn it I am lazy); May she R.I.P.; Marky Marc; Semi adopted; Nutty P; Cali-J (yeh I name myself heck the blog is named after me – and I talk to myself); Dat Bitch; Dui, Q; Jo; Ahab

Getting to chill at the club with James Toney. How often do peeps get to do that? And how often do you get to get into a fight in the club and have the Heavyweight champ of the world (IBF) have your back?

CONGRATULATIONS BECKY, RACHEL, MIKE and all the rest on passing the California bar and congrats CINDY on taking out the Texas bar!

Well this sucks! I am sick: Sore muscles, red eyes, congestion the works. I also have an invitation to enjoy Thanksgiving with a great friend. But, if I do not get better I will not be attending that dinner, because it is not cool to visit a home with illness. Here is hoping that it is just a lack of sleep, low resistance thing and that getting 6 hours or more tonight will help it.

As to our convos…phone and IM this has been a rough weekend for me. The fact that more than one person can think that, that line is about them makes me realize just how dumped on I felt this weekend and past day.

See why we burn the red candle. There is no more beautiful sight than thousands of red candles simultaneously burning the hopes of A & M down to NOTHING. WE'RE TEXAS. Fresno St scored 42 on USC at USC...hmm looks like there really is No D in the Pac 10.

Good fun for a good cause and it leads right into Bar Review, please come out and support both…Thursday, November 17, 2005 – Pakistan Earthquake Fundraiser7:00pm – 10:00pm, The Local Live Band: Trade Roots (Reggae and Rock Band)$5 cover and $3 drinks specialsAll Students and Faculty are invited

So I rarely stress, I tend to get nervous about things but I rarely stress: I do sometimes however, have intense moments of stress. I guess not stressing a lot means that the flash moments burn really hot. So last night (if you do not know the Cali-J is an insomniac) I went to bed fairly early for me about 3am after lying in bed from about 2am and once asleep all I kept dreaming about was my Mock trial for later today. Nothing unusual there I always dream b4 a big event, it tends to calm me down during the event because I tend to run through the event in my sleep so often during the event I get a sense of deja-vu and the event itself does not feel so bad. Makes me wonder if I am actually getting restful sleep or if I am just in a groggy state of restfulness since I don’t know how it is that I am able to control my dreams… So last night I was dreaming about the trial and then low and behold I leapt out of bed because in the middle of my trial I realized that my closing was completely wrong. I wondered why in the middle of my closing argument the judge and the jury all kept giving me funny looks (and no it wasn’t like old school dreams where you are stared at because you are naked) I realized that because my opponents have changed a key witness on their side from male to female the main gist of the closing that I gave especially the words “and she ran into the arms of another man rather than her husband” or “her husband was hurt because she was cheating on him with MR…” just does not work that well anymore. So damn it I woke up at 4am and was not able to go back to bed till 7am which just left me 50 mins to sleep since my class started at 8.30am. Now I also have to revamp my closing argument the thing that was supposed to have been written weeks ago and that we practiced in class I have this bad feeling that I am going to accuse the Defendant of having this illicit affair and just get stared at? I feel sand bagged and bamboozled their defendant that is supposed to be 5’10 and strong is now 5’2’ and small and their male witness who possibly had an affair with the defendant is now female. To make matters worse the victim that we are using to help prosecute is 6’2” and muscular no one in the court room is going to believe that he was attacked by this 5’2” woman. DAMN IT! This is why I do not like being prepared for anything. I had another dream last night too, but not sure if that is fit for air play.

How is it that without a single drink in my body I made a bet that if Texas loses I would streak the entire Corporations class? Come on you bloody Jayhawks roll over like the Punks you are and lose big to UT because I cannot be streaking a law school class at this stage in my career!

I had this bad bitch uptown, she was whoa!Had me fucked up in the head I mean whoa!Bought this bitch diamonds and perils, I mean whoa!Should’ve seen them shits shinning on her wrist, whoa!...Must I pound the concrete like whoa!Till this bitch ass has defeat like whoa!Ya man ain’t whoa!The judge ain’t whoa! --Whoa by Black Rob

The Cali-J is looking for a designated driver for this week’s Bar Review. The car must have space for 2 . My driver must also be discreet! I am willing to bribe, shall we say multiple drinks as the first bargaining chip? How about I also throw in the fresh chocolate chips that I will be making later today? That I think is fair and should sweeten the pot enough. Yes I know I said I am seeking a DD, and yes I know I said I would bribe the DD with drinks. I do not believe that a DD must avoid alcohol the entire night that is good for the Halloween party since you get to enter for free but not good for me; so all I ask of my DD is that you sober up by the time I need to get home.

Back to part of the bribe I AM BAKING COOKIES. And not that crap u get straight from a freezer and toss in the microwave, I will be in the kitchen messing with flour and mixing chips in. Weh dem seh? Fresh cookies! All are welcome to enjoy some; those who know where my crib is can just roll through after 4 because I have to go to the gym first. Can’t enjoy the guilty pleasure without the hustle.

Glad to see that my boy I Wayne is getting some pub outside of Jamaica. Go check out his artist page and then click on video to watch the video of his hit "Can't satisfy her". If you can not understand it because of the accent and the dialect, I will explain it all to you.

Ok because I am a lazy bastard and because I forgot to even care about the upcoming registration I forgot to create a registration advice blog etc so I just went into my blog archives and pulled up the one from last semester. If you see anything that should be changed etc just make a comment, to this new post.

My camera was splashed with alcohol and received a hard hit when my friend punched it, instead of me, but yet still a few pictures survived and I will post pictures throughout the day while I am in class.

I love the NFL Promos using the Burger King: But that footage that they use for the Dallas game is bloody old. How do I know? Because they have a black QB throwing a TD for Dallas! That hasn’t happened in at least 2 years if not longer.

The Texas v Baylor game is on TV tomorrow morning (actually later today), I initally thought that I would have to wake up at 8.30am to make it to the bar in time for the game. But, setting the DVR to record the morning games I found that FSN will actually be televising the game, so now I can just set the recorder, avoid the usual internet update sites, turn my phone off so none of my asshole friends can send me game updates to spoil the game for me (I love y'all but that is just cruel - as well as calling b4 noon on a Friday, Saturday or Sunday, and b4 11am other weekdays)and just watch the game as if it were live. GO HORNS GO! Could this be the dream Saturday? Could ND lose to Tenn, USC choke in AZ, and the Hokies finally get exposed by Miami? 2 out of 3 would be great!

Are peeps who encourage you to drink tonnes of shots really your friends? Are 12 mini shots really the right amount of alcohol to suddenly end a game of chess on? These thoughts I ponder as another fine night comes to an end.

By the way if you have not yet tried it, I highly recommend Shot-glass chess. Will explain it to anyone that needs it.

On my DVR I currently have Bobby Brown and Mike Tyson performing "Monster Mash" on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live'. Normally that show is terrible but that was the highlight of that show's unexplicably long run. Tyson's singing and grimaces are HIGH-larious.

"Shorty I'm there for you anytime you need meFor real girl, it's me in your world, believe meNuttin make a man feel better than a womanQueen with a crown that be down for whateverThere are few things that's forever, my ladyWe can make war or make babiesBack when I was nothinYou made a brother feel like he was somethinThat's why I'm with you to this day boo no frontinEven when the skies were grayYou would rub me on my back and say "Baby it'll be okay"Now that's real to a brother like me babyNever ever give my cootie away and keep it tight aightAnd I'ma walk these dogs so we can liveIn a fat ass crib with thousands of kidsWord life you don't need a ring to be my wifeJust be there for me and I'ma make sure weBe livin in the effin lap of luxuryI'm realizing that you didn't have to funk wit meBut you did, now I'm going all out kidAnd I got mad love to give, you my nigga"

--Method Man

Just expressing...(I know, I know, shameful to use someone else's words.)

...when I agreed to go jogging on the beach at 7am? Is the sun bloody up at 7am? I mean damn I keep my room so dark and locked up I don't usually know if the sun is up till at least 10am. Anyone who has dated me for any length of time knows that the last thing I am is a morning person; some would say I am not an afternoon person either. This is what happens though when you absolutely need to lose weight. You start to do things that seem impossible. Yes, yes I know some of y'all are up at 5am every morning and believe it's great to see the sun come up and that the morning is beautiful blah, blah, blah, take that ray of freaking sunshine and...And to those who have to go to work every morning etc. I feel sympathetic (quit now; start a revolution we should all start work at 10am and just leave later in the evening). This summer while working the worst thing for me was making it to work, once there I was golden, getting there was a chore.

And the newest contestant for the Supreme Court will be Samuel A. Alito Jr. In this corner the Conservatives, in the other corner the Liberals and in the audience the American public. Will he get voted in, or will he just decide that the circus is too crazy for him and quit the house? I believe that he will just sit through his confirmation hearing, decline to answer questions, endure the scathing remarks by democrats, the softball questions from republicans and be confirmed along party lines. So I vote that he makes it in.

About Me

Cali-J ueber alles in der Welt.
Some think that I am mean; (I call them friends), in fact I am not that mean. What I am is sarcastic and dry to the sandpaper level. I have friends that I have never said a kind word to their face, but I praise to the ends of the earth to anyone I know and will defend them to the end. That’s just how I roll! My boys know that I am down for them, my girls know that no matter what I will keep them safe (and occasionally flirt with them [If you are a female friend of mine and think I haven’t flirted with you it just means you didn’t notice, it was extremely subtle or…not yet ]). No one is safe from my sarcasm even my own parents; hence of course as a kid I spent a significant amount of time in punishment. I treat people with respect if I think they deserve it – everyone starts off with the same amount of respect from me (a lot). You don’t need to earn my respect; you have to keep my respect.
